A notorious hypochondriac who had established himself as the like and soul
of most dinner parties with outlandish descriptions of various ailments,
sat through one evening scarcely saying a word.
"What's the matter?" asked the hostess, "Don't tell me it's so awful you
can't even talk about it."
"It's not that," replied the guest. "It's just that I went to a new
doctor this morning and he cured all my topics of conversation."
